Definitions

  • the present invention is directed to cutting tools for gears and in particular to face cutters having a cutter head with stick-type cutting blades and means to clamp the cutting blades in the cutter heads.
  • Bevel and hypoid gears can be cut in a single indexing process (face milling) or in a continuous indexing process (face hobbing).
  • generating or cradle plane will put the center of the cutter head in a position which is away from the generating gear center (cradle axis) by the amount of the so-called radial distance.
  • the silhouette of the cutter blades represents one tooth of the generating gear while the cutter rotates).
  • Common face cutters for bevel gear cutting have several blade groups with each group having between one and four blades. Most common types of face cutters are alternating (completing) cutters with one outside and one inside blade.
  • the cutting blades In most stick blade cutter systems, the cutting blades have a rectangular blade cross section are usually secured in a cutter head via a friction seating between clamp blocks or clamp screws and a radial seating surface of the cutter head.
  • An example of positive blade seating is shown in US 6,120,217 which incorporates a pentagon shaped cross section with two specially oriented seating surfaces. It is very important for cutting blade (especially if the blade material is carbide) to achieve a stiff and precise seating between the blades and the cutter head.
  • One purpose of a clamping system is the precise positioning and a high seating stiffness of cutting blades without any blade movements during a tool life run which, for example, may be more than 8 hours of continuous gear cutting.
  • Precise cutter head building requires the ability to relieve the clamping forces of the clamping system without disturbing the axial blade location in order to move the blades axially by small amounts relative to their previous position. Such a truing procedure is not possible with self- locking systems wherein impacts from a tool, such as a hammer or screwdriver for example, are required before a blade can be axially moved.
  • the present invention is directed to a bevel gear manufacturing face cutter head for face hobbing and face milling wherein the face cutter head includes a positive blade seating and stick-type rectangular or square cross-section cutting blades are clamped tight to the positive seating surfaces.
  • the cutting blades are adjustable radially by axial movement by a non-self-locking system.
  • Figure 1 (a) shows a cross section of a cutter head with a stick blade which is connected to the cutter head with a clamp block and one clamp screw.
  • Figure 1 (b) shows a similar cross section but with the clamp block pressed against the blade with two clamp screws.
  • Figure 2 shows to top view onto a section of a cutter head.
  • the stick blade is pressed from a single screw and a clamp block onto the radial seating surface
  • Figure 3 shows a three dimensional view of a cutter head section with a rectangular stick blade pressed with two clamp screws and a clamp block onto the radial seating surface.
  • the connection between blade and cutter head is a friction seating.
  • Figure 4 shows a top view onto a cutter head section with one rectangular slot.
  • the stick blade in the slot is pressed by two corner screws and an angular clamp block against the tangential and radial seating surfaces.
  • Figure 5 shows a three dimensional view of a cutter head section with one blade slot.
  • the rectangular blade is pressed with one corner screw and an angular clamp block against the tangential and the radial seating surfaces.
  • FIG. 6 shows a three dimensional view of a cutter head section with one blade slot.
  • the rectangular blade is pressed with two corner screws and an angular clamp block against the tangential and the radial seating surfaces.
  • Figure 1 shows a cross sectional view of a cutter head 2 having a top surface 3, a bottom surface 4 and a blade positioning slot 5 (see Figure 2) and further including a stick blade 6 which is positioned and held in the cutter head 2 with a clamp block 8 and one clamp screw 10 or an equivalent means to exert a force on clamp block 8.
  • the blade 6 is pressed against the radial seating surface 14.
  • the main cutting force is perpendicular to the clamp force.
  • the friction between the seating surface 14 and the blade 6 should prevent the blade from moving perpendicular the drawing plane. Due to the intermitted cutting forces and tolerances on the flatness of the contacting surfaces of cutter head 2 and blade 6, an initial blade movement can occur. Such a movement slides the blade 6 perpendicular to the drawing plane until the back side of the blade contacts the back side of the slot 5.
  • Figure 1 (b) shows a similar cross section of a cutter head 2 with a rectangular stick blade 6.
  • the clamp block 8 is pressed against the blade 6 with two clamp screws 10, 12.
  • Figure 2 shows to top view onto a section of a cutter head 2.
  • the stick blade 6 is pressed from a single screw 10 and a clamp block 8 onto the radial seating surface 14.
  • a gap 16 which is required in order to allow the placing of a blade 6 in the slot 5 is shown in front of the blade 6.
  • the gap will be partially in the front of the blade and partially between the back of the blade and the tangential seating surface 18. It is very likely the gap will exist in the front of the blade at the top of the cutter and in the back of the blade at the bottom of the cutter. Between the top and bottom of the cutter, the gap will be partially in the front and partially in the back of the cutting blade 6.
  • Figure 3 shows a three dimensional view of a cutter head section with a rectangular stick blade 6 pressed with two clamp screws 10, 12 and a clamp block 19 onto the radial seating surface 14.
  • the connection between blade 6 and cutter head 2 is a friction seating.
  • the main cutting force direction is perpendicular to the clamping force. Only the friction between radial seating surface 14 and blade 6 prevent the blade from a tangential movement.
  • the inventor has developed a bevel gear cutter head having stick-type cutting blades with a rectangular or square cross section and a blade clamping mechanism which provides a stiff positive seating of the stick blades in the cutter head slots of both face milling and face hobbing cutters.
  • Figure 4 shows a top view onto a face milling cutter head section with one rectangular slot 5 illustrated.
  • the stick blade 6 in the slot is pressed by two corner screws 10, 12 and an "L-shaped" angular clamp block 20 against at least a portion of both the tangential seating surface 18 and the radial seating surface 14.
  • the radial seating surface 14 provides a precise and stiff radial positioning of the blade 6 while the tangential seating surface 18 backs the blade up against the main cutting force with a high contact stiffness.
  • the clamp screw 10 is oriented under an angle ⁇ (with respect to a reference line perpendicular to radial seating surface 14) on the front outside corner of the cutting blade, its force F-i acts with the F a component radially and with the F b component tangentially as shown in Figure 4.
  • the force F 2 of a similarly positioned lower second clamp screw 12 acts also with the F 2a component radially and with the F 2b component tangentially (not shown in Figure 4).
  • the seating principle is a positive seating or form seating.
  • Figure 5 shows a three dimensional view of a cutter head section with one blade slot 5 illustrated.
  • the rectangular blade 6 is pressed with one corner screw 10 and an L-shaped angular clamp block 22 against at least a portion of both the tangential seating surface 18 and the radial seating surface 14.
  • the stiff tangential seating provides high blade stiffness in the cutting process and prevents blade vibrations.
  • the stiff radial seating provides a precise blade location and also prevents blade movement and vibrations during the gear cutting process.
  • Figure 6 shows a three dimensional view of a cutter head section with one blade slot 5 illustrated.
  • the rectangular blade 6 is pressed with two corner screws 10, 12 and an angular clamp block 22 against the tangential seating surface 18 and the radial seating surface 14.
  • the upper clamp screw 10 may be located with some distance to the upper face 3 of the cutter head 2 and the lower clamp screw 12 might be located at the lowest possible point relative to the clamp block 22.
  • the inventive cutter head uses stick blades with square or rectangular blade cross section.
  • the clamp block 22 preferably contacts at least a portion of the front surface 24, at least a portion of the outside surface 26 and the blade corner 28 defined by the intersection of the front and outside surfaces (as defined by a cutting blade positioned in a cutter head illustrated by Figures 4 - 6).
  • the clamp block 22 extends longitudinally by a distance not exceeding the length of the slot 5 between the top surface 3 and the bottom surface 4.
  • One or more clamp screws 10, 12 are positioned to contact the corner area, preferably a flat area 30, of the clamp block 22 and are oriented under an appropriate angle ⁇ (e.g. 45°) to the reference line perpendicular to radial seating surface 14 (see Figure 4).
  • the radial clamp force F a component presses the stick blade 6 against the radial seating surface 14 and provides precise positioning as well as radial seating stiffness.
  • the tangential force component Fi b presses the stick blade 6 against the tangential seating surface 18 and provides a defined position and a stiff seating of the blade in tangential direction.
  • the main cutting force direction finds a reaction force coming from the tangential seating surface without tangential blade movement and dynamic
  • the inventive seating arrangement provides a positive blade seating between square or rectangular stick blades and a cutter head.
  • FIG. 4-6 when a cutting blade 6 is positioned in a blade positioning slot 5 of a cutter head 2, three of the blade corners are located next to one or both of the radial seating surface 14 and the tangential seating surface 18.
  • a clamping force, F-i oriented at an angle ⁇ to the reference line of the slot 5, is applied by one or more clamping screws (e.g. 10 and/or 12), preferably via a clamp block 20, 22, which applies the clamping force to the front outside (i.e. remote) corner 28.
  • the clamping force may be applied to an area of the blade front surface 24 and/or the outside surface 28 located near to the corner 28 (i.e. the "remote corner region") of the cutting blade.
  • the clamp screw angle ⁇ may be lower than 45° in order to have high radial seating contact force and generate, in the tangential direction, just enough force to get a defined and stiff seating on the tangential seating surface 18.
  • the main cutting force vector F-i will deliver an additional force against the tangential seating surface 18 in the upper area.
  • the main cutting force will also try to separate the tangential seating surface 18 in the lower area of the slot 5.

  • the Y-axis of the coordinate system in Figures 5 and 6 has been chosen parallel to the cutter head axis of rotation and the extension of the Z-axis to the left (negative direction) intersects with the cutter head axis of rotation.
  • the theoretical blade front is oriented in the plane which is defined by the Y and Z axes.
  • the inventive clamping system is also applicable to those cutters which do not utilize clamp blocks.
  • the clamp screws of those cutters types usually include a provision for a rotating tip (e.g. swivel head) or blades with a flat area perpendicular to the clamp screw axis in order to provide a surface for defined and stable contact between the tip of a clamp screw and a stick blade.
